From the reviews
This dance class studio is phenomenal. My then 5 year old granddaughter, Tyliyah Johnson was signed up with "RAVEL DANCE STUDIO" and simply loved it. The owner, instructors and all staff teaching and mentoring this young age of new dancers we're extremely patient and actually took the time to teach and nurture each…
Amazing dance company! This wonderfully operated family-owned business has touched so many lives in the Northern Va area. So thankful for Janet, Ursula and the rest of the staff for all their hard work and dedication!
My daughter has been going to Ravel for 11 years, since she was 3. From the first moment we walked in, I was impressed with the studio because it was much more professional than others, and the instructors really knew what they were doing.
My daughter Beya got to experience her first dance classes here and always looked forward to going, always happy when she leaves. She was enrolled in the Creative Dance for 3-4 yr olds and her teacher was Sarah.
Your first ballet class at Ravel Dance Studio
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
